Right now, yes its pretty much like it was before Abyssea. To say its flat out dead or heading there, as in it won't be around anymore, isn't true. It is possible they can turn it around with a new director with a new expansion, you say WOTG and I say TOAU and Abyssea. Maybe I just don't wanna be so pessimistic like you but whatever its the wrong thread for it. Point is, telling someone they shouldn't invest into a "dead game" is silly, because there will be stuff coming that will rejuvenate the game similar to how Abyssea did it which wasn't even a boxed expansion. Also because if you still enjoy the game then there isn't anything wrong with furthering your enjoyment.
